OLLI Donor Spotlight
Susan Yelton

In 2003, my husband and I moved back to Tallahassee to once again enjoy the energy of a university town and the rich academic and cultural opportunities it offers. Not long after, I discovered OLLI at FSU. —then known as The Academy. It quickly became a place where I made new friends, enjoyed stimulating classes without the pressure of tests, and found a true home away from home. I’m proud to support OLLI as a donor, helping to ensure that others can share in the joy and lifelong learning I’ve experienced over the years as a member.
